Street Lights

High time for nothing, there’s a clock in the prison cell
Superfly sells me something, made me come out of my shell
Now I don’t even have to tell you, you already know
Any map in any station, pick a line and go

You’ve always got the street lights
Shining on your hard times
Don’t it make your shoes shine
Starin’ at the street lights

Hey street lights won’t you save me?
Bringing down aircraft with your eyes don’t amaze me
The former number one contender, squealing on a spike
You keep screaming no surrender, go and ride your bike

You’ve always got the street lights
Shinin’ on your hard times

When the top one hundred earners’ coffins have been nailed
When you stop the lovely sisters opening your mail
And when the reason why you’re drinking isn’t solely to get wrecked
It’ll be hard times for something, wouldn’t hold my breath

You’ve always got the street lights
Shinin’ on your hard times
Don’t it make your shoes shine
Starin’ at the street lights
